Top 10 reasons why me and 15 friends deserve to win a suite to watch the Avs vs. Predators:

10.  We need to see the recall concept in action, when a manufacturer recalls an item, they don't want you to use it.

9.  For us women, having the energy to cheer during three periods is a piece of (chocolate) cake!

8.  We all missed the neighborhood live Jack-o-lantern making workshop in October.  This will make up for it!

7.  My friend, Cathy, went all out at Thanksgiving, and was disappointed when, after baking her 500th roll, I told her the award was for the 500th goal made.

6.  We all boycotted memorabilia last season from the National Hooky League.

5.  Some members of our group have documented Stanley saucer sightings.

4.  We've all seen Alien vs. Predator several times, and the outcome is always the same.

3.  We like the Avs, we really like them!

2.  The lack of hockey forced us to watch the newest sport, and all the World Series of Poker tournaments are reruns.

and the Number 1 reason...

1.  The extra $1 to pay for power-play on powerball is eating into our Christmas shopping budget.
